I'm as liberal as they come, but I see clearly he's oversexualized due to the fact he's been exposed to adult content at a very young age. I wish him the very best.

[@nikkijohnson94]

Kids today are often exposed early on to adult content... It's important that his mother discusses with him the implications of his online presence for example, or his use of the word vixen. He sounds like a thoughtful, highly intelligent, creative young individual. To me, it portrayed at least that he has the skills and the support (at least for now) necessary to be able to make the best choices he can ..what's the difference bw this and performing theater ? At least as it was portrayed, he does not feel disgust or shame about his body, no desire to mutilate or harm himself, etc (often symptoms of children who are unable to express their gender identity or sexual preference due to risk of shame, isolation, potentially abuse) ... I am glad this portrays an example of a unique individual capable of thriving in today's world, being successful, gaining skills and understanding of the world... Ultimately his choices in life have already led him on quite the adventure ... He seems to have learned more about the world than many have at his age. I am curious if you Would have considered him oversexualized if this was a video about a young girl with the persona violet vixen who likes to play with makeup and dress up ?

[@Christine-xt8fr]

@@nikkijohnson94 Yes, if he was a girl, I would definitely consider that behavior to be oversexualized. I thought the dance the kids were performing was a little much as well. As a matter of fact, wearing all that makeup and those clothes & shoes in public is highly inappropriate for a girl of 11, and if anything, I thought it a little LESS inappropriate because he's a boy. So people aren't having negative reactions because it's a boy wearing female clothing & makeup.... it's just that it's obvious that the kid is oversexualized!

[@angry-lucky-catty]

I would never let my preteen daughter leave the house in fishnet tights and a full face of makeup, no matter how beautifully done. I’m glad he’s expressing himself; he seems like a wonderful person. But I wonder if most of the people reacting to him think he’s a hyper-sexualized *girl* child. Society definitely doesn’t think little girls should strut around looking like adult prostitutes, so I’m not sure why little boys would do it and expect zero backlash. If he identified as a girl, I doubt she’d let him wear this.

[@elvenkind6072]

I just wonder what TF is wrong with you people that manage to see something "sexual" about a little boy that just like to play with makeup and gender roles, and so obviously just love life. Naturally his mom have to protect him from weirdos, but it make me really sad to think that perhaps there's more "normal" weirdos then weird weirdo's, if that make sense. Just let the kid have fun, and leave it up to parents and teachers to protect him. I just think he might need protection from judgmental weirdos, like people thinking there's something bad about him having fun, as in the above comments. Poor people...

[@spikefivefivefive]

Imagine a parent encouraging an 11-year old girl to wear fishnet stockings and high heels and lots of make-up. Most people would say that's sexualizing a child. But a parent is encouraging an 11-year-old boy to wear fishnet stockings and high heels and lots of make-up, and people are calling it entertainment. It's a disturbing double-standard.

[@rosiebri5372]

The only thing that bothers me is how absorbed he seems to be in the internet. He's literally parroting Jeffree Star, a person in his 30's. I love Jeffree and Drag Race but I'm not really sure it's appropriate for an 11 year old to be mimicking full grown adults. Just bothered me when he used the phrase, "the real tea." How much tea does an 11 year old have to spill? lol Also these people totally have media personalities, with the cameras are off they're not always putting on full-face or acting dramatic. In Shane Dawson's new series you can see that Jeffree works really hard for what he has, he runs a business and a lot of the drag queens have casual lives off stage. There's nothing wrong with the makeup and clothes, that IS freedom of expression but I think he needs to be more aware that these people's media personalities aren't necessarily representative of how they act/look day to day. The larger issue here is the seemingly unrestricted access to the internet at his age.

[@raisinsofdoom]

@@jessispagnola8924 I liked this kid. I think he's one of those "raised on the internet 'weird' kids." We don't make friends well because we're seen as "weird." So we become somewhat ostracized and alone. We mature slightly different in the sense that we can't look to our peers for support, mostly adults because they're more ... understanding, so we often enjoy the company of adults more than those our age. When you don't have a social circle imagine what we choose to replace it with? The internet, our own thoughts, we close our world and choose to avoid the toxicity of these judgments by what everyone else is pushing on us. He's gone through several "obsessions" and he's put so much attention and effort into each one that I think that's something to be proud of. I too jump from one thing to another, but heck I'd be grateful to have at lleast half his determination. He's not stupid. He'll make mistakes but he's smart enough to learn from then.

"I knew I was underaged"..... YES!! AND FOR GOOD REASON.

Even this boy knows something feels wrong about meeting him right? What a sick show, the mother is very clearly engaging her son in her fantasies.

@@itskeagan3004 so it’s OK I want to go to girl plays dress up and wears make up but when a boy like him in the video does if there’s an issue

This boy is going to grow up and become a successful makeup artist

Funny how these kids start behaving this way when they "access Ru Pauls drag race"... As his mother said... I've heard this a lot from other parents who's children have got into this stuff. Disgusting parenting... Kids are EXTREMELY impressionable, its no wonder her Son is going down this road.

aww he got so nervous when he got to meet Act! You inspire me

[@milliefusion7340]

He has the most wonderful personality and that is what is going to take him places. He is very artistic and should be celebrated for that. His aura is so bright. I hope he learns dance and music and keeps creating the beautiful person that he is.

I can’t stress enough how important it is to have a PRESENT father in the home.

This kid needs serious psychological healing, and his home environment needs to be completely overhauled. He's being totally failed by those who he should be able to rely on 100% to look out for his health and wellbeing. People need to WAKE UP and STAND UP for goodness' sake. 21st century Earth is a freak show of unprecedented proportion, and the media is SO part of the problem.
